I've been informed that the NYU Ada compiler for the IBM PC is written
in C.  So now, all we need is an energetic hacker to rewrite the back-end
to generate code for the Amiga.
   Seriously, is there any word of Ada for the Amiga?  One of the toughest
things about Ada for most machines, multi-tasking, is fully supported.
NYU has shown it can be done.
   For info, the NYU Ada runs on a PC-AT with a hard disk and 640K.
